I like the recipe and think that adding vanilla would bring out the other flavors a little more. Also the tip to sub Peanut butter to up the protein and lower the calories a tad. My personal battle, up protein and lower calories

Add the carrots along with the dried fruit. I added 1 tsp each of nutmeg and cinnamon. The texture isn't quite cookie-like, but it tastes very good, especaially the next day. Also, please don't submit a comment if you haven't actually made the recipe; that makes zero sense.

After reading about benefits of flax, I added 2 TBLS of milled flaxseed. Also, this Wisconsinite substituted dried cranberries for the apricots. I'm not crazy about all the work of making cookies, BUT I WILL MAKE THEM AGAIN BECAUSE THEY WERE GOOD TO EAT AND GOOD FOR YOU!

My wite -Ladydi25348-made this recipe. Didn't have carrots so used zucchini and added the cinnamon and nutmeg w/o measuring. Baked a bit longer than recommended and made 31. Pretty good, very sweet and chewy. We both liked them.

I made these tonight, and they turned out very good. I read and reread the recipe, but I could not see when to add the carrots, so I added them to the egg mixture. Anyway, they are delicious, and I will rate them as such!

I wanted to try this recipe subsituting corn flour (for all purpose flour) as I have a friend who is alergic to wheat. Turned out just fine. I think I'd like to add a little brown sugar next time because the carrots tasted bitter. Also added coconut which was nice. - 2/18/09

I like everything in this cookie and did put them in the freezer to have on the run. I may put chopped apples in when I don't have the apricots. And I did add 2 TBSP ground flaxseed which I do to most of my goodies.

These were very good. We did not add the cinnamon or nutmeg, because they were left out of the ingredient list. We subbed raisin bran, because we did not have cheerios. I guess most any cereal will do. Nutrit. would change. We used WW flour. My Pampered chef cookie scoop made 30 perfect cookies.

I made these with 1/4 cup peanut butter and 1 Tbl butter, whole wheat flour instead of all purpose. Added 1/2C apple sauce and only 1/8C honey, and 2 Tbl flaxseed. The apricots were very flavorful! Next time I will omit the apple sauce and use full measurement of honey.

I like the idea of sub w/P But and flax seed. I did use WW Flour and add tsp of cinnamon. Not exactly what I expected, but good. Also added coconut. My husband really likes them. Will make again and try other fruits & nuts.

Delicious! I loved 'em! they were great! Also, a tip for them is to make them sweeter try 1 cup of mashed banana too! mm-mm! Very filling too which was good but i definitely craved one after I ate it!
